Under Lincoln Riley, Oklahoma consistently has one of the most prolific offense in all of college football. The Sooners have ranked first, first, and then third in yards per game in Riley’s first three seasons as head coach. Most people would look at prolific passers such as Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray along with elite receivers such as Dede Westbrook, Marquise Brown, and CeeDee Lamb and assume that the passing game is OU’s calling card. That is partially true, as they’ve ranked in the top 15 each of the past three seasons in passing yards per game, but I believe the running game is what makes Oklahoma’s offensive train fly down the tracks.
